I was loading more music for my car today and fell down a rabbit hole. I have a media server with more than 60,000 songs collected over the last 60 years; it went from records to cassettes to compact discs to solid-state drives. It is about every genre. I listened to the song In Christ Alone<\/a> by Christina Grimmie, and the rabbit hole opened up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was about 15 when she recorded it. She was a neat kid and a great Christian. Initially, she only performed on YouTube with almost 4 million followers. Later on, she stared on The Voice and rose to an acceptable level of fame. Then, on June 10, 2016, Christina Grimmie was fatally shot at the age of 22 while signing autographs following a concert performance at The Plaza Live in Orlando, Florida. Her assailant committed suicide, leaving no evidence of motive, only speculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every time I hear this song, I can\u2019t help but think about what could have been. I do not doubt that God cried on that day. Not because it was unexpected or unknown, but because the world would lose out on an extraordinary talent. I understand that God uses all things for His glory. We, the ones left behind, lose a light illuminating the darkness. Six years after her death, people like me are still affected. People like me ask this one fundamental question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If my life was asked of me today, and my greatest passion in life was laid at the feet of Christ would He weep because of a life cut short or because of a life lived unfulfilled?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Jesus heard that Lazarus had died, He wept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John 11:35<\/strong>, \u201cJesus wept.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As He was entering Jerusalem before His crucifixion, He wept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luke 19:41<\/strong>, \u201cAnd when he came near, he beheld the city, and wept over it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I look at the passions of my heart, what do I see? How do I invest my time, money, and gifts? What do I think about when I go to sleep at night? What books do I read, what podcast do I listen to, and what discussions do I gravitate toward? What\u2019s my passion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I lay that passion at the feet of Christ, how would he react? Is it a worthy gift for a King?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t stand for something, you\u2019ll fall for anything.\u201d \u2013 Anonymous 1926 Methodist church announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isaiah 1:17<\/strong>, \u201cLearn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all have a desire to have meaning and worth. We all create a unique sphere of influence to leave our mark. If we don\u2019t have purposeful intent, we will be part of someone else\u2019s meaning and worth. Chart your course. Through prayer, scripture, and Godly counsel, find your path. Once you have found it, own it; make it meaningful. Don\u2019t worry about results, only obedience. It\u2019s not about creating a ripple through eternity; it\u2019s about creating a tsunami. Never sell yourself short. Never let the world determine your worth. You are more than the sum of your experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people, maybe even most, would equate passion with calling. They might say that we are called to something by God, which becomes our passion. I add a slight nuance to that. I believe our calling is to a people group; it might be children, young adults, inner-city or a foreign country. Our passion is the gifting we use to execute our calling; we may be teachers, artists, musicians, or leaders. Our calling may change over time as we mature. God will send us in a different direction. Our gifting, and passion, may vary when we are younger as we experience new things, but at some point, it comes to rest on something. The problem is that we often don\u2019t know how to use our passion to make a living and minimize its importance. We see the value of God\u2019s calling on our life, but not necessarily our passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J. I. Packer, in his book \u201cA Quest for Godliness,\u201d stated, \u201ca half-truth masquerading as the whole truth becomes a complete untruth.\u201d Therefore, don\u2019t deceive yourself concerning who you are. When you lie to yourself about any aspect of who God made you, you degrade all of who God said you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Corinthians 7:17<\/strong>, \u201cNevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My greatest hope is that we all find our passion that glorifies God and chase it all the days of our life; that we take the riches that God has created within us and use them to praise Him. My primary passion is small business development. My current calling is to help impoverished third-world Christians rise above their poverty. I have secondary passions like black and white photography, the outdoors, and listening to music. All of our passions should be to glorify our King. Secondary passions are the ones we hold with an open hand. Our primary passion is the gift we set as His feet; it is the first fruits of our existence. It is what gets us up in the morning and lulls us to sleep at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Micah 6:8<\/strong>, \u201cHe has shown you, O mortal, what is good and what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christina Grimmie found and chased her passion throughout her short life. She did not wait for a better time or more clear direction. She didn\u2019t wait for her passion to be discovered; she put herself out there. Her life was cut short by what still seems like a senseless act, but her impact continues. People like me, and maybe you, ask ourselves; Do we use our passion to present a worthy gift to our King? She did. Will you? If you do, the ground will shift on the ocean floor and the tsunami will rise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
